Great accommodation and well equipped for our stay . Enjoyed the on-site restaurant and kids loved the swimming pool. Lovely area and Landmark just down the road which the kids enjoyed the most .

Individual Cabins in the woods, surrounded by water and wildlife. Great experience. A car is needed as although the town is not far it is not really accessible by walking. Would definitely stay there again.

Great place for 2 nights after we were let down elsewhere but the whole place is a bit tired, I wouldn't really call it a resort, it's just a few static caravans around a duck pond but good location for visiting Aviemore and Cairngorms.

We found the staff to be incredibly helpful and friendly. The accommodation was comfortable and the setting was beautiful. If you came here expecting Center Parcs I imagine you would be disappointed but this was perfect for me and my family. All three of my kids said they would like to come back.

Spring holiday

We had an enjoyable stay at the property, there were a few little issues but nothing to put us off coming back. The cold water tap in the bath didn’t work so had to use cold water from the sink to put in a bath, the rubber edging round the oven door had come off and was loose in the oven, some of the equipment /trays for the oven also weren’t the right size to be able to cook on. The property is slightly dated and could do with a little bit of TLC. Overall though and enjoyable stay

It's a great location, in amongst the woods. Chalets are nice, but quite run-down and not especially clean. Staff are good, but pool was not working (not communicated at booking), some things were not working in chalets, and it was quite dirty in places (flies, mould in bathroom, hairs on bedding, etc). For the price, it was ok though.
Julian, 2-night trip

It was a nice place

The only annoying thing was there was only a single bed and a double bed made up. We had to make up the sofa bed and the single pull out. They knew there were two children. Apart from that it was fine and had everything we needed. We were busy throughout the day so we left the sofa bed up.

Moved to Spey Valley resort due to overbooking.

We were 'upgraded' to the sister resort in Aviemore as this resort was no longer available due to overbooking. The lodge at the Spey Valley Resort we were moved to was old and very tired looking, the whole lodge needed repainting outside and the bathroom had not been updated in probably 20 years. The oven had one shelf and was seriously lacking in cooking trays etc. The bed was uncomfortable so we ended up sleeping on the sofa bed!
Kathryn, 3-night trip

Unfortunately this resort is very dated now. It would be a struggle to call it a resort as the amenities and activities are very very limited on site. We had a broken spoon on the porch, a squeaky electric fire place, cheese left in the fridge from last guest I can only presume and an 85% empty garlic mayonnaise in one of the cupboards. Toiletries being provided was just 3 bars of soap. Its very quiet if thats what your after, but with young kids it is not big enough to cycle around, or walk around, without venturing onto a main road. We used it only to sleep, and then headed back to Aviemore for the days we were there. All in all a very expensive place to sleep given it is dated facilities, broken swimming pool (40 mins round trip to the nearest offer of a swim), and lack of things to actually do onsite.

4/10 Fair

The property itself and resort is very dated and needs some money spent to give it some life. When I went in I immediately had to hoover as the carpet was covered in dog hair. I have a crawling baby!! The shower trickled so I needed to use a jug to wash my hair. The hair dryer cut out after 30 seconds. The beds were comfy and the surroundings were peaceful although the cabins are meters apart. There was a lack of privacy as the dining space of our cabin looked into the dining space of next doors. Other notable issues, old electric radiators which became very hot (needed heating on although it was summer). One was positioned at the foot of my son’s bed which wasn’t safe, and above the other single bed there was a blind with metal ball cord that is not child safe. The oven door didn’t shut properly. When looking on various sites it said there was no capacity for a cot however I easily fitted a blow up toddler bed for my baby in the main bedroom so this, and high chairs should be offered to make the stay less hassle for guests. I think a lot needs to be updated to make the facilities and cabins worth the £800 we paid for 4 nights here. We ate at the onsite restaurant, and I thought it was a lovely meal but a bit expensive. The swimming pool facilities were good. Toilets in main building could be updated and cleaner. The play park could be freshened up with a coat of paint. I would say in its current state it would be a push to say it’s even 3 stars! Not worth the money.

Run down wooden shack

Location and setting are good. Lodge 41 was a disgrace, bathroom had black mold patches poorly painted over rusty shower curtain rail. Lodge had what can only be described as a funky smell in it with a do not smoke car air freshener hanging from the Livingroom light to disguise this. Previous occupant must have had a large hairy dog going by the amount of dog hair everywhere. Outside the lodge was dirty with loads of cigarette ends lying around. There is a wooden walkway over the lochan that is not safe to use but is not very well blocked off. There are no fish in the Lochan as they are still waiting on a delivery.

I arrived here on January the 2nd at night for a 3 night stay with my wife and 15month old baby. The uk as a whole having a very cold weather snap with weather warnings in place,- 3 to be exact with significant snow fall. On arrival I was asked for a credit card in case of any damage I might do to the cabin, seemed an odd introduction with not much information care or attention taken to welcome us to the resort. On entering the cabin there was no heating on which on inspection turned out to be electrical panel heaters that had seen better days, the building was damp as it of course had obviously lay vacant with no heating to heat the fabric and make up of the building resulting in a damp smell and unbearable damp cold rooms. This then instantly felt like a survival situation to turn on all the heating and figure out how to set the heating with a small baby in the freezing cold, not quite what I had intended for a wee family break. I might add that this is very poor and although my wife did mention to them a day later and they had assured us it was not correct and it should have been on for our arrival, the very first thing that was mentioned on arrival at reception was a credit card and how because it was an Expedia online booking we didn’t need to worry about an electrical bill payment! Call me suspicious but it evident that it’s there protocol to save money. Lastly the roads and paths no salt or clearing just black ice everywhere! Very dangerous!

So peaceful!

The peace & quiet here was amazing! Other guests were respectful & the only noise in the morning was the ducks looking for food. Our lodge was dated but comfortable. There were a few minor issues but nothing that affected our stay. So in summary the accommodation is not luxurious but the location & setting are wonderful if it’s a quiet break you are looking for.

This place was absolutely terrible, smells awful, black mold everywhere, entire chalet was dirty. Hair all over the bed sheets, and given the opportunity to even give a partial refund the property refused!! The chalet is a health hazard and I cannot fathom how such a once beautiful property has become so rundown!!

No tiene buena relación precio-calidad

El complejo es bonito y tranquilo, personal amable. El lodge algo viejo, cuarto pequeños, cama matrimonial muy pequeña. La ducha del baño le hace falta una mejora. El edredón para la cama de abajo del 2do cuarto no estaba limpio. Es bonito el sitio y el lodge pero falta actualizacion y es muy caro para lo que es. No volvería por ese precio.

Expensive for what it is. Shabby and worn out

To start check-in not until 5pm which seems late to me. (Only saw this once booked) Told a fee to check in early. (Which was steep) Place was freezing when we entered with no heating on. Which must be a knock on effect for the place smelling damp/musky. It did heat up ok eventually. Was very shabby inside and worn out. Kitchenette was in good condition, but only highlighted more that everything else wasn’t. Sofa bed once folded out was dirty and had dog hairs on and in it. Had to be made up ourselves which we understand why, but clearly isn’t folded out and checked. Also the sofabed mattress being thin, is also clearly very much used and in need of replacing. The springs on such a thin mattress are easily felt when new, but on this one there were several that are past their best and sore to lay on. The overall cleanliness was ok considering the condition. More dog hairs in second bedroom. Bathroom was a bit grubby. What we paid was very expensive for what we stayed in. Wouldn’t return, which is a shame as it just needs a refresh.
